In order to have sex, I must not take pills to lower my blood pressure for 3 days. It is very tiring because the symptoms of hypertension, severe headaches and nervousness for any reason come back. How to solve it?

Hypertension is one of the most common diseases that cause erectile dysfunction, but unfortunately this effect is also achieved by most drugs used to treat it. For starters, I suggest that you talk to your doctor and possibly change the medications you are taking. Unfortunately, it is impossible to say in advance which of them will not cause sexual dysfunction (this is quite an individual reaction), but we know about many of these drugs that they carry a much higher risk of such side effects. If, despite changing medications, erection problems do not improve, it is advisable to visit a sexologist who will probably prescribe drugs such as viagra or similar.

Remember that our expert's answer is informative and will not replace a visit to the doctor.
